The men's 100 metre breaststroke event at the 2024 Summer Olympics was held from 27 to 28 July 2024 at the Paris Aquatics Centre.[1]
Records
[edit]Prior to this competition, the existing world and Olympic records were as follows:
World record | Adam Peaty (GBR) | 56.88 | Gwangju, South Korea | 21 July 2019 | [2] |
Olympic record | Adam Peaty (GBR) | 57.13 | Rio de Janeiro, Brazil | 7 August 2016 | [3][4] |
Qualification
[edit]Each National Olympic Committee (NOC) was permitted to enter a maximum of two qualified athletes in each individual event, but only if both of them had attained the Olympic Qualifying Time (OQT).[5] For this event, the OQT was 59.49 seconds. World Aquatics then considered athletes qualifying through universality; NOCs were given one event entry for each gender, which could be used by any athlete regardless of qualification time, providing the spaces had not already been taken by athletes from that nation who had achieved the OQT.[5][6] Finally, the rest of the spaces were filled by athletes who had met the Olympic Consideration Time (OCT), which was 59.79 for this event.[5] In total, 21 athletes qualified through achieving the OQT, 15 athletes qualified through universality places and two athletes qualified through achieving the OCT.[6]
